An inventor claims to have devised a closed cyclic engine which exchanges heat with cold and hot reservoirs at 25 and 350 ◦C, re

spectively, and produces 0.45 kJ of work for every kJ of heat extracted from the hot reservoir. Is this claim believable?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

T_{c} = 25^{o}C,  T_{h} = 350^{o}C

Work produced per kJ of heat extracted from hot reservoir = 0.45 kJ = Efficiency

If the device is Carnot cycle then its efficiency will be maximum and its value will be equal to [1 - (\frac{T_{c}}{T_{h}} )]

Using this relation we will calculate the efficiency as follows.

                 Efficiency = [1 - (\frac{T_{c}}{T_{h}} )]

                        = 1 - (\frac{25}{350})

                       = 0.928

Hence, it means that this type of device is possible and the claim is also believable.

A cup of sugar has a volume of 237 ml. What is the mass of the сup of sugar if the density is 1.59 g/mL?
iragen [17]

Answer:

\boxed {\tt 376.83 \ grams}

Explanation:

The density formula is

d=\frac{m}{v}

Rearrange the formula for mass, m, by multiplying both sides of the equation by v.

d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v

d*v=m

The mass can be found by multiplying density and volume.

The density of the sugar is 1.59 grams per milliliter. The volume is 237 milliliters.

d= 1.59 \ g/mL \\v= 237 \ mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

m= 1.59 \ g/mL * 237 \ mL

Multiply. Note that the milliliters, or mL will cancel each other out.

m=1.59 \ g * 237

m=376.83 \ g

The mass is 376.83 grams.

Please help me.<br><br>balance this equation <br><br>Al + 0(2) = Al0(3)
Gala2k [10]
What helps me to balance equations is to list the elements i have on each side of the equation, and use tally marks to see what I have and don't have. Then when I'm done balancing, I tally again to make sure everything matches up.
On the left side, you have 1 Al, and 2 O. On the right side, 1 Al and 3 O.
In order for the equation to balance, you need to place a 2 in front of the AlO on the right side. This would make the Al have 2 atoms and the O have six. On the left side, you need to place a 2 in front of the Al and a 3 in front of the O, making it six. Left side: 2 Al's 6 O's. Right side: 2 Al's and 6 O's. Matches!
